ROWENA EASTON
ROWENA EASTON :: LEAD ARTIST
Rowena graduated in 2000 from the University of Brighton, UK, with a degree in Critical Fine Art Practice. Her practice is driven by language: Exploring systems to evolve new narratives and create disruptions using text and technology.
Rowena is interested in her writing's relationship to architectural space: Its foundation, structure and ornament. She constructs a poetic space, which investigates the interplay between formal and organic systems. It is through working with language's temporal and spatial qualities, that her interests have been directed into sound.
In recent years her work has become increasingly concerned with architecture and the built environment; a direct result of her involvement with the restoration of Embassy Court, an iconic Modern Movement building in Brighton.
Rowena exhibits internationally, and is currently working on Stories High; a book and touring exhibition about the urban myths that have become an integral part of Embassy Court's architecture.
